Real Hidden Treasure

Like most people, I love a good fantasy, and because I deal
in antiques, a recurring daydream is finding a true ‘sleeper’, an ordinary,
everyday object that turns out to be a million dollar artefact.

It happened just last week, though, alas, not to me.

A New York family bought a small bowl a garage sale, and it
turned out to be a 1,000 year old Chinese Northern Song Dynasty treasure. The
only other know example of similar size, form and design is in the British Museum.
